Counts here are a floor, never a total: they cover the 583 consultation files tracked so far (42,224 submissions, mostly 2025–26), so an organization's real filing history is larger, not smaller.

Amendment of the Blocking Statute

UK Finance · filed 27 Aug 2021 · source

The consultation document notes third country sanctions are often applied where a nexus with the prohibiting country does not seem to exist. The Commission should consider that as global financial markets are interconnected, foreign currencies can create a nexus to the currency owner even if the transaction is outside that country.
